Your network contains an Active Directory forest.

You deploy Microsoft 365.

You plan to implement directory synchronization.

You need to recommend a security solution for the synchronized identities. The solution must meet the following requirements:

• Users must be able to authenticate successfully to Microsoft 365 services if Active Directory becomes unavailable.
• User passwords must be 10 characters or more.

Solution: Implement pass-through authentication and modify the password settings from the Default Domain Policy in Active Directory.

Does this meet the goal?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The proposed solution does not meet the goal because pass-through authentication requires the Active Directory to be available for authentication to occur. If Active Directory becomes unavailable, users would not be able to authenticate successfully to Microsoft 365 services, which contradicts one of the main requirements. Therefore, the correct answer is No.
